March of the Dead
Once dreaming of knighthood, his life is shattered when assassins murder his family, abduct his sister, and leave him for dead, his family name tarnished with heresy.
Amidst the ashes of his former life, he vows vengeance, a vow that echoes through the realm, awakening a dark destiny.
Bestowed the forbidden powers of a Necromancer, he embarks on a perilous journey across lands rife with monsters and ancient evils, becoming embroiled in wars that test his resolve. As he masters the necromantic arts, he faces the moral quandaries of his new powers, taking lives both innocent and guilty in his quest.
Along his path, he encounters allies, mentors, and even deities, but his resolve remains unshaken. No force, mortal or divine, will deter him from his vengeful path.
A beautiful story. well, that's a lie, it's a horrible world, with great storytelling. the author makes sure to explain the backstory of the world when its needed. it occasionally drags on but never for long. the progression is fast enough to be interesting, but slow enough to for the main character to not become OP overnight. Every conflict actually has weight, like it has consequences.
